PAf~E mx ~ ____ ____ - TEE CANADIAN ~TÀTVAw.. UOWMMIVIT.LU.. AUTAWIfl Religion for Today The Education 0f Conscience A Weekly Talk By Rev. &. R.Nicholson Many people have a wi-ong coniception ai conscience. If you asic Uicm wha-t Ail, they will answei-: "It is samnething wîth- ini me which tells me what la right and what is wrong." Others sa-y that "conscience la the vaice ai God in thc soul", and acconding ta this idea con- science always tells a ma-m wha-t is right, and thercby in- dicates what he should do. But these answers are absolutely w on g. A little girl wa-s asked what conscience is, and she gra-vcly e MOTOR - SALES -SERIVICE T.V.- RADIO - APPLIANCES "ILi:lLU rcplied: qIs something inside ai me that tells me when. John- ny daca wrang." That kind o conscience is very conon, but ,not pa-iticula-ily usci ni in i-e- forming one's own life. There are many people, however, wlîo base thein assurance ai their awn high moral standards, on their swift perception af other people's wnong-doing. Dr. R. E. Speer says: "There la marc confusion lnd ci-rom of thought an thc subject ai con- science t.han on a-ny other sn- gle subject, and it is confusion and errai- which are full ai mis- chief a-nd ha-im." The trouble is that wc confuse thc con- science and thc moi-a-I judg- ment. Conscience is that mani- toi- within us, which tells us there is 'ight a-nd there is wrong, anad that we must al- ways do thc ight a-nd reject tIe wrong. Conscience neyer tells us what is ight and wha-t is wrang. Wiha-t we think a-nd believe is ight or wmong, de- pends upon aur education'a-nd moral judgment. Histany afiords ma-ny illustra- tions ai the nccessity ai train- ing conscience. Nowadays cvery Christian would be shocked at thc thaught of holding a slave, or cngaging in the liquor traf- fic. Yet, we learn frorn a- ser- mon by Dr. lienry Cia-y Ti-ur- bull, ta coilege students, at Northfield, Mass., on the sub- jcct of Moral Calai- Biindness that "Godly aid President Stuces, ai Yale College, wrote a letter ta a fricnd in the West Inclies, proposing ta send a- hogshead af New England umn in barter for a-n able-bodicd negx-o slave. Still later thc Rev. Dm. Nathan Strong, pastar ai my aid home church in Hiartford was, as I have been told, the owner aifa- distillcny while li the active ]ROYAL, A358 THIS THURS.

Not being no .uoem. ful a distiller as lie was pastor, he f ailed in tic ruin business, and a civil judgment was i-en- dered against him accordingly. To evade the slierifl's execution, he was compefled ta shut hi5m. self ini the parsonage weekdays for a series o! weeks; but wher Sundays came lie zoved oui in solenin dignity, with his cockcd hat and knce-breeclies, and passed across to the churoh ta pi-cdithc Gospel, es usuai. No civil process could distunbS him on Sundays. Ris conscience docs not seemn ta have disturb- cd him, on the dîstillery ques- tion, amy day of the week, There arc churches stiil stand- ing, here i New England, which wcre built witli tic pro- ceecis o! lotteries duly author- ized for that sacred purpose, at the prayerful requcat of min- isters and churcli-members."' Many great wrongs have been donc im the name of con- science. Christ said ta lis dis- ciples: "Thcy will put you out oi tic synagogues; indeed, thc haur is comidng when whaever kilis yau wiil think lie is offer- ing service ta Giod." Sa-ul ai Ta-sus conscientiously persecu- ted the Christians and hailed thern ta prison. The Huguenots werc massaci-ed by the thous- ands in France; Protestants wcre burncd at the sta-ke in England; gadly wamen wene drowned as witohcs in thc New England States - aIl in ,good conscience. The priests, who de- vised and maintained the tor- tures oi the Inquisition were not ail ba-d men. Ma-ny ai them. daubticas, were good men, wha sincereiy thaught they wcre do- ing right. Conscience, therefore, la not a safe guide unless it has been paoperly instnucted i the teaching ai the Christian Scrip- tures. We ma-y be sinoere and conscientiaus in wha-t we do, but, ncvei-thcless, we may be mistaken a-nd in thc wnong. In itself conscience is not inial-1 libie. "It is not wha-t we think1 that de termines right and wnong1 but the moral fa-ts a-nd thc chai-acter ai God."1 Conscience must alwa-ys be abeycd, but we shauld bic sure that aur moral judgmemt is sround and our conscience la right. This means that con-, science must have a standardi by whioh ta learn thc funda-- mental moral realities, and tha-t is thc Holy Bible.

Any meniber af a weekly Seditorial staff places the inde- pendence of his paper in Jeopardy the moment he is elected te a public office. He la no longer an objective ob- server on the aide-limes. No longer can he bat out an edi- torial criticizing something lie thinks is wrong about any lacet t oftown governmen± ifl li han officiai of the town. This not anly applies to the >editor afi a newspaper but ta his staff (if amy>. l'Il go further than that. 1 do not think an editor lias amy place servimg on civie corn- mttces or fund raising drives --and I'm guilty in small de- gree myseif. How can an editar be publicity chairman of the local Red Cross chapter and be a feee agent? How can an editor serve on a comniittee planning a mcw school without having a siant. cd approach ta the news and editorials lie publishes in lis newspaper? IAn editor la a lanely Indi- vidual at bcst. He must live ,with lis thoughts and translate ~thecm into editorial comment. Hs mmnd should be free oi en- cumberances. His loyalty ca- flot be dividcd. An editor ha-s anly one loyalty in his evcry- day life and that is ta his papen alane. No editor ca-n very well tel a member ai lis staff that he cannot participate in public affirs. Hie would be in the un popular position ai denying hs staffer lis rights as a citizen. But if one of his staffers is clected ta public office the 1 editor ca-n pnatect the integrity oi his rcparting by making it plain ta the staffer that lis usefulness as a reporter ai town news becornes necessarily limited. I other words, if a staff member is clectcd ta member- shipý an the school board, the editor ma-y have the argument thrawn at him that the staffér, now being on the "inside" can do a better job of reporting. I don't think so. I'd rathen have a fellow with no axes ta grind covering the beat. I have several editor friends on weeklies in va-nous parts of the country who violently dis- agi-ce with me. They say it is the "civie duty" ai an editor schaol wcre taken ta the hospi- tal the sa-me day.
